Chapter 920: You’ve Been Fooled And You Still Don’t Realize It (3)
He looked at the warm smiles of the two old people and his wife. Mo Beihan felt an inward peace.
He had just given orders to get rid of Zhang Xiaohui and Gu Ruoqing.
The two of them were of no more use to him. There was no need for them to exist any longer.
He had never been a good man. In his previous life, he used various methods in order to reach a high position. The mother and daughter had viciously attacked his Yao Yao. Even after two lifetimes, he could not forget that in their previous lifetime, his Yao Yao was just fifteen when she woke up in the middle of the night to discover herself lying weakly in the same room with a strange man with bad intentions. She must have been so frightened!
Mercy?
It did not exist!
Mo Beihan went downstairs and sat next to Gu Qingyao. Gu Qingyao smiled when she saw him. “Are you done?”
Mo Beihan nodded. “Uhm! I don’t have much to do today. What do you want to eat for lunch? I’ll cook.”
Grandma Mo laughed. “If you’re cooking, then we don’t have high expectations. Whatever you cook won’t be as nice as Yao Yao’s cooking.”
Mo Beihan laughed and pulled Gu Qingyao along. “Let’s go! We’ll cook together. Or my poor cooking will ruin my grandparents’ appet.i.te.”
Gu Qingyao smiled and went to the kitchen with him.
The lady who worked in the kitchen was preparing for lunch. Most of the ingredients were ready. When Mo Beihan entered, he dismissed her. He and Gu Qingyao would do the rest.
There was a smell of herbs in the kitchen. The Old Master and Old Madam had to eat medicinal meals every day. Gu Qingyao prepared these.
The servant had already cooked the rice, so Gu Qingyao and Mo Beihan just had to cook the dishes.
Gu Qingyao took charge of the cooking while Mo Beihan finished preparing the ingredients and continued was.h.i.+ng and cutting the vegetables.
As he cut, he chatted with Gu Qingyao.
“Everything is almost settled. Is there anything else you would like to do next?”
Gu Qingyao glanced at him and smiled. “I’m fine! My pace of life now is neither fast nor slow. I have work, but I don’t have to spend my time on it every day. It’s quite comfortable.”
Mo Beihan smiled gently and put down what he was holding. He moved behind her and reached out to circle her slender waist. He rested his chin on her shoulder. “Then… shall we have a baby to play with?”
Gu Qingyao pursed her lips and smiled. “Bringing up a child is difficult. Are you going to take care of the child after it’s born?”
“Of course. You just have to give birth to our children, and I’ll be responsible for raising them. How about that?”
Gu Qingyao was amused. “Do you know how to take care of children? It’s difficult to care for a small child! If you have to take care of a child, you won’t have much time to work.”
Mo Beihan nuzzled her shoulder. “No, our child will certainly be very, very good. And with your inters.p.a.ce, we have plenty of time. I won’t be too busy with work. I will certainly do a good job caring for our child. All right?”
Gu Qingyao paused and glanced back at him. “As for having children… I can’t have children whenever I want. Besides, we… haven’t always been together recently!”
Mo Beihan paused. It was true. In the past when they were overseas, they were studying and had no time for children. So they were careful whenever they were together.
They were not yet married when they returned to China, so of course she must not get pregnant. But now they were married, and during their one month honeymoon, Yao Yao had not said anything about taking precautions.
Mo Beihan smilingly reached out and stroked her tummy. “Perhaps our baby is already here!”
